  <description>&lt;p&gt;Welcome back to the Dearing Acting Studio Podcast.&lt;br&gt;
Today’s episode dives into one of the most overlooked skills in both acting and life: being accountable for every word you say.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In improv, one careless line can completely derail a scene. The same is true in real life. We often talk to fill silence, react to thoughts that aren’t even true, and say things we wish we could take back—but can’t.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode, Matthew Dearing and Joey Sweeney break down a simple but powerful framework used in acting class:&lt;br&gt;
How to “fill the box” with better options before you speak. How to filter your thoughts through what’s actually true. Why saying less often gives you more control. And how your words shape the reality you’re living in&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you’ve ever said something and immediately regretted it… this episode is for you.&lt;br&gt;
Master your life through the craft of acting. &lt;/p&gt;

  <itunes:subtitle>In this episode we have Shea Toepel and Joey Sweeney as our hosts. They talk about how being employee's at Dearing on the guardian team is such a blessing. They both have a true passion for acting and talk about their dreams of being an actor and how that has brought them to the studio. The people they are today is all thanks to the personal development coaching and guidance they've gotten from Matt Dearing. Being on this team allows us to make work our passion. Not only are we able to continue growing in our acting craft, but we've been given the opportunity to bless others with that same gift on their journey. Work is our passion at Dearing Acting Studio and the connection between acting and personal development we teach has been something that both Shea and Joey believe in and are proud to be a part of! </itunes:subtitle>
